Desire
I feel that it is my responsibility to inform you all that this chapter is a little odd. I can't believe I got over two hundred reviews for this story. I feel very happy.
Madison had freed her hands from the headboard…only to find out that Norrington had locked the door. She had gone through all that trouble for nothing. Some part of her knew that Barbossa probably knew she'd figure a way out.
She sat on the bed and waited. She wasn't sure what she waited for. Madison played with her hair and searched the room during the two days it took to get to Santo Domingo.
(Jack's P.O.V)
"Either he has a plan and he doesn't want tell us." Will said. "Or he doesn't have a plan and doesn't care." I felt like ripping the boy's head off.
How could I not care about my Maddie? He's right though. I don't have a plan. If they would shut up then I'd be able to hear what was going on above deck.
"Maybe he's just waiting for us to think of something." Elizabeth said. I grinned. Lizzie always was a smart one. That pretty much was it. I knew Barbossa, they knew Norrington. They do all the thinking and I listen and make some changes.
Why wasn't I talking now? Because as soon as we were thrown into these godforsaken cells, I could feel the worry in Madison. I wasn't very sure if it was her worry or mine for a while but I knew it was hers now. I don't know how I felt it but even since I realized that I began wondering if she could feel what I felt.
She could do practically everything else!
(Third Person P.O.V)
Elizabeth leaned against the bars of her cell and looked over at Jack, very far away. She turned her eyes to Will.
"What do we do?" Elizabeth asked.
"Wait till we dock and hope for the best." Will said.
"We can't wait that long Will!" Elizabeth said.
"What do you suggest then Elizabeth?" Will asked. Elizabeth took a deep breath and sighed, shaking her head.
Madison watched as Norrington came into the room with a box and left it on the table. She raised an eyebrow at it but didn't get up from the bed. She knew what was in the box…a dress. She didn't want to wear her, although part of her knew she should. With a sigh she stood up and went over to the bed. Madison lifted the lid off the box and pulled out a velvet purple dress. She liked the sleeves best because of how big they were.
"Well…I guess the man has some taste." Madison muttered. She sighed again and got changed. She looked at herself in a mirror and starting playing with her. She had instantly come up with a plan but in order to make it work, she had to look the part. With what she had in the room, she manages to put her hair up and pulled a few strands out to frame her face and make her green eyes stand out more. She looked around the room and wasn't really surprised to find stuff to paint her lips a deep red colour and outline her eyes. She walked over to the door and knocked on it. As she expected, the door was opened by Norrington.
"I didn't think you'd actually wear it." Norrington said, raising an eyebrow.
"I've had a change of heart." Madison said. As Norrington nodded and turned his back to her, Madison tugged on the neckline to make it lower.
"We will be docked within the hour." Norrington said, looking back at her. His eyes traveled to the neckline of Madison's dress and she acted as if she didn't notice.
"Commodore." Madison said. His eyes quickly snapped up to hers. "Can you grant me one little favour please?" She tilted her head and pouted, linking her hands behind her back and swaying a bit.
"What…do you want?" Norrington asked.
"Would I be allowed to see Elizabeth for a few minutes?" Madison asked, stepping closer to Norrington. She placed a hand lightly on his chest and looked up at his eyes. "Just for a few minutes please? I promise to be good."
"Well…" Norrington said. Madison resisted rolling her eyes and grimacing about what she was about to do. She slid her hand up from his chest to behind his head and kissed him swiftly with closed lips. She pulled away before he did anything. "I guess a few minutes wouldn't hurt." Madison smiled and followed him below deck. He actually left her alone with all of them.
"Madison!" Elizabeth said, making Will and Jack look up. Madison rushed over and dropped to her knees in front of Elizabeth's cell before reached in and hugging her as best as possible. "What's going on?"
"We're going to be docking in an hour at Santo Domingo." Madison said. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Jack move slightly and looked at him to see him uncomfortable. She stood up and went over to him. Unlike what she expected, Jack stayed away. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing." Jack said. Madison raised an eyebrow. "Nothing is wrong."
"Liar." Madison said. "You're locked in a bloody cell, probably on your way to get hung. And nothing is wrong? If you were closer I'd slap you." She stood in front of Will's cell. "Do any of you have plans?"
"No." Will said.
"Me neither." Madison said, sighing. "What about dad? Is he alright?"
"I dunno." Will said.
"And my mum?" Madison asked. Will and Elizabeth looked confused.
"She's probably fine, darling." Jack said. "She is your mother after all."
"WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?" Madison yelled, spinning around and storming up the stairs.
"What IS wrong with you?" Elizabeth asked, staring at Jack. "You haven't been like that to her since she got you out of the kraken."
"I didn't mean for it to come out like that." Jack said. He looked down at his hands.
As Madison said, an hour later they felt the ship hit something and Elizabeth, whose cell by a window, announced that they had docked. Guards came down and locked them in irons before pulling them onto the deck. Madison, also, was in irons. Norrington standing behind her and to one side with a hand on her shoulder. Jack looked down at the water and raised an eyebrow as he saw more then the usual amount of dolphins.
"Well then…shall we go?" Norrington asked.
Ok I know this sounds like I'm being mean to them but…I want to split them up. The people who got the answer right about the Madison-pregnancy thing will be the ones I ask about this so you people, check out your messages.
